Becoming the Police

Now that you have all the necessary components, let’s discuss how to become a police officer:

• Outfit: Put on the blue shirt and blue pants. Attach any badges or insignias that come with the costume for added realism. Top it off with the hat.
• Hair: Keep your hair neat and tidy. If you have longer hair, consider a hairstyle that keeps it out of your face.
